Guide: how to use Viral Velocity Meter
Viral videos announce themselves early. The engagement in the first 24 hours — not the views, the likes and comments and shares per view — tells you whether a video is going to travel before it has travelled. The Viral Velocity Meter scores engagement velocity at 24, 48 and 72 hours against the threshold at which videos in your niche typically break out, reports whether momentum is accelerating or fading, and tells you when to push the video on other platforms.
